Is that the plain fried ones, like the ones you put in sabich? If so, it's very simple--slice aubergines, (you may have to cut half lengthwise if it's big), sprinkle salt and leave for 5-10min and rinse. This takes away bitterness. Some people like to peel strips of skin lengthwise but I usually leave the skin on.
In a skillet, heat about 1-2 tablespoon oil till it's really hot, nearly smoking. Add aubergine slices--make sure none are overlapping, sprinkle with a bit more salt, fry both side. You may want to press them down with a spatula so it releases water and cooks quicker.
